Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to explore the advancements in the utilization of biomarkers and clinical imaging techniques for the comprehensive diagnosis, prevention and management of bone and soft tissue decay. The collection of articles will provide an overview on the latest research findings, methodologies and technological innovations that showcase the potential of biomarkers and imaging modalities in understanding the pathological processes underlying bone and soft tissue decay. The interdisciplinary nature of the contributions will provide a holistic view of the current state-of-the-art approaches, highlighting their implications for personalized medicine, early disease detection, targeted interventions and improved patient outcomes. Researchers, clinicians and healthcare professionals are invited to contribute their original research, reviews and case studies to enrich our understanding and pave the way for further advancements in this critical area of musculoskeletal health.
